Please help us get the word out .....

Hi Everyone

Thanks to those who have registered their interest on the EventBrite site.  Much appreciated!

It is coming up to 6 months to the anniversary day on 2 November and there is a lot to get happening.  The organising committee is meeting again on Thursday 2 May at 7pm at Canberra High.  Please join us if you can. We need to make a decision about where to hold the cocktail party, and to discuss what memorabilia people will be interested in to commensurate the event!  Do you have any ideas??

Importantly, we need to start to get the word out there!  Please help us if you can by sharing this blog with others.  Three links have been added to the Alumni section on this blog where there are Canberra High students registered.  By accessing these sites you may be able to contact some of your old school friends!

I hope you are enjoying the fabulous autumn weather.  With best wishes,

Alaine

Welcome

Welcome to the blog for sharing information about the Canberra High School 75th Anniversary Celebrations.
Canberra High School was established in 1938, in what is now the ANU School of Art.  The school was relocated to the Jamison Centre in 1969.
My name is Alaine King, and over the next few posts we will be meeting the small group of enthusiastic alumni and teachers have formed a team to pull this event together and we invite you to joint us!  We are planning two main events on Saturday 2 November.  An open day at the school and a cocktail party.
Of course the first thing is to find out how many people will be coming so that we can get the right venue for the party!  Please register your interest in the window below.
Over the next few weeks we will be building up the Alumni lists and we are looking for year co-coordinators to act as the "go to" people for each year.  We will also be building links to existing alumni networks.
We are looking to collect stories from you, about your experiences at Canberra High School, to add to the considerable collection in our archives, and any artifacts will be gratefully received by our archives team.
With best wishes
Alaine
